NEW Whitepaper: Deploy IBM Db2 pureScale on Azure

The AzureCAT and DMJ teams recently worked with an enterprise that rehosted their IBM Db2 environment running on z/OS to IBM Db2 pureScale on Azure. In this guide, Larry Mead, Benjamin Guinebertière, Alessandro Vozza, and Jonathon Frost describe the steps they took during the migration. Their findings were reviewed by members of the IBM Db2 pureScale team.

Installation scripts are available on GitHub (see the Db2onAzure repository). These scripts are based on the architecture that the team used for a typical medium-sized OLTP workload.

This whitepaper was authored by Larry Mead, Benjamin Guinebertière, Alessandro Vozza, and Jonathon Frost. It was edited by Nanette Ray. It was reviewed by Mukesh Kumar, AzureCAT, CSE EMEA, DMJ (all from Microsoft), and the IBM Db2 pureScale team.
